My response. Actually, the instruction in my post is sufficient for any HOMO SAPIENCE having enough cells in his (or her) brain.

If you can not follow, it is just a serious reason for you to be in trouble.

It means, at least, that you are in wrong class (gently saying . . . )

Also, please keep in your mind, that this forum's goal is not to provide answers to you.
Its goal is to teach students to solve problems --- assuming that they want and able to learn.

In the future, if you allow one more such comment, I will write to your MANAGERS / professors / professor,
asking them what you are doing in this forum.

From year to year I provide hundreds and thousands first class solutions for visitors at this forum,
and I will not tolerate boorish comments.
